Posted on Thu, 24 Sep 2015

Very enjoyable going on the walk with you again, and the sense of time and the kind of noticing that goes with the speed, or lack of it, of a walk makes it seem very real. A lovely Pick of the Day too.

What a nice way to end, and even the advice she was able to give him, really just nudging him on the way he had been tending to go of realising how much these people had done for him, and his need of showing his changed attitudes.

From an extremely brief

Posted on Mon, 14 Sep 2015

This brought back memories!

Posted on Wed, 09 Sep 2015
